I was thinking, why don't someone create a KoL] Uncyc game but do exactly the same? (I mean include the Toot Oriole, King Ralph, Slime Tube, Spookyraven Manor Quest, Dusty animal Bones, NS, Meat Globe etc.) Hoping someone will help me with this. Game:Kingdomofloathing.

And I need template help Mr Zhe-mel-talki-signe-singaporel-bling ^Brute! 06:47, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

I don't get it...so you want to basically make KoL here....which already exists elsewhere....as its own humorous game....I think we like to call that plagiarism. -RAHB 07:00, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

Okay... so it would be KoL here but all the names changed to users. Would that be fine? I mean like Toot Orion instead of Tooot Oriole? King RAHB instead of Kign Ralph? Mr Zhe-mel-talki-signe-singaporel-bling ^Brute! 07:03, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

Well...I mean that's really still plagiarism. You're using the same name for the game, what you have there already is directly lifted from the KoL page, and I assume you'd be using the same plotlines as well. I don't see the reason for doing this if it already exists elsewhere. -RAHB 07:04, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

Okay... the plotline will be changed, trophies will be dismantled, food/drinks/equipment/whatever will perish, so it will be a click-click game. Okay? Mr Zhe-mel-talki-signe-singaporel-bling ^Brute! 07:06, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

And you can't craft/mix/cook/smith/pulverize/toymake, there won't be crimbo/st. sneaky pete/whatever. Is that better? Mr Zhe-mel-talki-signe-singaporel-bling ^Brute! 07:07, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

So you're going to try to make a cheap ripoff then. No. No that doesn't sound better to me. How about you (brace yourself for this) make your own original idea! I know, I know, it's a lot of work. But, you know...good things only come from actual work. -RAHB 07:09, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

You mean like how Wikipedia is a cheap ripoff of Uncyc which is a cheap ripoff of Thailand? 07:12, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

Something like that. -RAHB 07:13, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

Okay. You play KoL? Mr Zhe-mel-talki-signe-singaporel-bling ^Brute! 07:47, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

Used to, which is why I have enough respect for the writers of it to not allow someone to create a cheap ripoff of it just because they were bored. -RAHB 07:51, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

Ooh no wonder. Mr Zhe-mel-talki-signe-singaporel-bling ^Brute! 11:40, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

If I were to make a cheap rip-off of that game...

I'd call it Kingdom of Loading. Also, the only screen would say --<<>> 21:12, 22 June 2009 (UTC)
